For good measure I also tried the atrpms released ivtv.ko again with the same result. Somewhere there must be lurking a module that lets you dump those registers, but it's not at http://ivtvdriver.org/viewcvs/ivtv/branches/0.8.tar.gz?view=tar

Ivtv was in early and medium 2005 in heavy flux, all kind of drivers came with ivtv _and_ with the kernel, and you could get all kinds of contradictory advise to use which with what parameters. But it's in the directory /lib/modules/2.6.11-1.27_FC3/ivtv/, so my guess would be that this is the driver that came with ivtv-0.3.2q. The machine that this was compiled on has been gone, as have the sources (I'm not running FC3 anymore anywhere), and once I got something that worked satisfactory I stopped experimenting. I do also have a driver in /lib/modules/2.6.11-1.27_FC3/updates/drivers/media/video/ which I have renamed to cx25840.ko.NOT, so I guess that's not the one used here. (I've noticed that the access bits of drivers don't get set when they're loaded, even though from rc.sysinit I have the impression that driver loading happens after mounting the root file system rw).
